"Yes, let's go!" Princess Longji grabbed Ye Lang and said with a smile. She wouldn't let Ye Lang leave her, but she didn't want to stay here either.
If such a thing had happened under normal circumstances, she might have stayed to find out what was going on, but now that Ye Lang was there, she put those things out of her mind and hadn't paid any attention to Prince Longguang.
"Long Ji, you all stay here for now! This matter is over for now, but we have some other things to discuss! Someone, take Prince Longguang away. The Cold-Blooded Group members, return to your positions for now, and everyone else, please step aside!" Vermilion Bird Emperor issued a series of orders, dealing with the matter first. There were some things he needed to deal with later, and some things were not convenient to handle here.
"Bye-bye, cousin..." Ye Lang called out happily when he saw that Princess Longji had been called. He was about to leave with the others as well.
"You stay too!!" Princess Longji was determined not to let Ye Lang leave.
"Your dad is calling you, not me. You two should talk more, and remember to take your medicine!" Ye Lang slipped out, and Princess Longji found it strange that he managed to get out.
"You stay here too!" At this moment, the Empress Dowager suddenly appeared, grabbed Ye Lang, and placed him in her palm, examining him closely.
"Let go of my grandma!" Ye Lang shouted.
"Grandma?" Princess Longji was a little puzzled, but she quickly figured it out. She thought that Ye Lang was often confused and might not know the Empress Dowager's identity, so he might have called her that randomly.
As expected of Princess Longji, her guess was incredibly close to the truth!
"What 'grandma,' call me maternal grandmother!!" the Empress Dowager said to Ye Lang, her face seemingly serious but with a smile.
"Grandma?!" Ye Lang looked at the Empress Dowager and then said something that made everyone cringe, "Grandma, are you trying to take advantage of me? No way!!"
Would the Empress Dowager of the mighty Vermilion Bird Empire take advantage of you?
But what happened to my grandmother was indeed a bit sudden!
"You little rascal, do you think your grandma would take advantage of you?" the Empress Dowager continued.
"I don't have a maternal grandmother. My mother never told me I had one!" Ye Lang shook his head and said.
"..." Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager was immediately stunned, as if there were many stories behind it.
"Your name is Ye Lang, right? We've known about you for a long time, you spendthrift Thirteenth Young Master Ye. Although we've never met you, we've always kept an eye on you!" The Vermilion Bird Emperor looked at Ye Lang and said with a touch of emotion.
"I know that you have now broken away from the Xiangkong Empire, and it is said that you have won a kingdom..." The Vermilion Bird Emperor's expression was a little strange when he said this.
The news that Ye Lang had won a small kingdom had spread throughout the continent. However, it was also generally known that the small kingdom Ye Lang had won was now called Ye City, and it was the new territory of Ye Chengtian's faction of the Ye Clan.
Because of what happened later, everyone somewhat overlooked Ye Lang's situation, since everyone was focused on the future of the Ye Clan!
The direction the Ye Clan takes could potentially alter the landscape of the mainland!
No one expected that the Ye Clan would actually venture into business and start operating a commercial city...
"By the way, little brother, what exactly happened to you? Why did Zhao Yarou stage a coup? How did your Ye Clan split up? Also, how did you escape? And how did you win a country?" Princess Longji asked one question after another. These were the questions she had been thinking about the most lately, but she still hadn't figured them out.
Although everyone knows what happened in the Xiangkong Empire, no one knows the details. These things have been kept secret by the Xiangkong Empire, and no one knows them.
If this gets out, Ye Lang will become the focus of everyone's attention, and Princess Longji will face even more problems!
"I've known Zhao Yarou was a monster for a long time. It's perfectly normal for her to stage a coup. As for the Ye Clan splitting up, go ask my dad. I don't know anything about that! Escape? It's simple, just escape like this..."
Ye Lang answered one by one, and only he would answer one by one. Others would at least organize their answers, but he answered as if he were answering a question.
At this moment, Cold-Blooded Fifth realized that it was normal for Ye Lang to call Zhao Yarou by her name. He knew Zhao Yarou and had even opposed her.
At the same time, Leng Xue Cold-Blooded Fifth also learned Ye Lang's identity: the Thirteenth Young Master Ye. This surprised both Cold-Blooded Fifth and Cold-Blooded Seventh. They never expected that this little fool would have such a background!
"As for how I won a kingdom, I don't know. That king insisted on betting with me, and he had terrible luck, losing everything he bet on. So I won everything from him, and he couldn't take the blow, so he went and committed suicide!"
"It's not that others are unlucky, it's that you're lucky. You win every bet you make!! That king really brought this upon himself! He actually gambled with you..." Princess Longji said helplessly.
"..."
"Is that so?" Ye Lang asked blankly.
"Exactly! In this world, there's no one luckier than you, you little fool. Fools are blessed!" Princess Longji said with a light laugh.
"Alright, I know you siblings have a good relationship, but you also need to let me and my little grandson develop a bond!" the Empress Dowager said at this moment. "Isn't that right, my little grandson!"
"I'm not your grandson, don't claim kinship with me!" Ye Lang refused the title.
"... Since you call me Long Ji, then am I not your maternal grandmother?" the Empress Dowager said.
"She is her, and you are you. What does it matter?" Ye Lang asked curiously.
How could there be no connection? My cousin's grandmother is very likely to be my maternal grandmother...
"... Long Ji, quickly talk to him, why is he so stupid, he just doesn't understand no matter what I say." The Empress Dowager was a little helpless.
"I knew it!" Princess Longji shook her head and said, "Little brother, Grandma is your maternal grandmother and Aunt Anqi's mother. That's true."
Long Anqi's identity is indeed extraordinary; she is actually a princess of the Vermilion Bird Empire. I believe not many people know this, not to mention the Ye Clan, even the people of the Vermilion Bird Empire rarely know it.
This is because Long Anqi is a very special princess with many stories in between, and Ye Lang was unaware that he had such a noble status in the Vermilion Bird Empire.
These stories also created some distance between Long Anqi and the Empress Dowager, which Princess Longji clearly sensed, and even Ye Lang could feel it.
"I don't care what you say! If my mom didn't say it, then it's not true. Wait until my mom tells me you are, then you are!" Ye Lang said directly, not accepting Princess Longji's statement.
This little fool, why can't he turn a corner! The Empress Dowager and the others were somewhat helpless.
